Aye that’s good Les. An extra game and all the kerfuffle that surrounds it.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

An interesting question; would any Town players get into a National League best XI? I think most agree that McAtee is our standout player, but would he get a look-in ahead of the likes of Tshimanga, Mullin or Madden?

He’s a player who needs the right system to truly flourish, so it’s hard to say.

Efete is the other one who would potentially stand out, but I don’t know enough about the league’s other right backs to say for certain whether or not he’s the best the division has to offer.

I'm glad. Loads of the top sides have players going to play in this. I assume they'll meet up for atleast a couple days prior to the game as a squad? Get those legs tired ready for the run in. UTM

Glad we’ve not got any players in this, if I remember from last time we where down here the Manager was a right bell end. Good to see Ben Killip involved in one of the squads.

This England C isn't age restricted so it would seem unlikely that anyone would feature in a National League XI. Bit harsh on McAtee for sure plus an argument for Welsh U21* Clifton and Efete.

*I know that doesn't make sense but Clifton is eligible for England C.

Certainly makes no less sense than Declan Rice playing for England.

Would think he stands a pretty good chance of being selected ahead of Tshimanga right now. 😉

Any idea what the rules are?

Efete is from Drc but not capped by them at full level, unlike say Toto who was, but what is the cut off when it comes to England C, presume different rules as not in the same ballpark as a full international cap.

I think we have 2 full internationals in our squad btw....

Grant and Crocombe. Incidentally, for a bit of Sunday evening trivia - Crocombe isn’t the first New Zealand international goalkeeper we’ve had on our books. Can you name the other?

P.S. Rob should know this one.
